So, this is my 100th blog post on NickWardOnline. It has taken forever since I have only posted updates as new paintings develop or I manage to weasel my way into interesting events or shows but here we are at the big 100th post.

To celebrate I am going to make a new print to give away to anyone who reads my site, here or on Facebook notes.

So, it will be a multi-color hand pulled screen print but, the choice of image is yours.

1. another print based on one of the make-up girls paintings.
2. a print based on one of the sunbather girls.
3. an entirely new print, a sneak peak into the next series.

Anyone who wants can leave a comment on my site or on Facebook, or email me with your vote for image choice.

After that, anyone who reads these posts that wants a print can just send me an email letting me know that they want a copy of the print. I will give everyone a few weeks or maybe a month to respond to make sure nobody gets left out, then I will make a run of prints. Then, I will send everyone a hand pulled limited edition screen print.

I posted a while back about some prints that I was in the process of making and I have finally managed to finish them. So, like I said before, it is an edition of 20 prints. Each one is a hand pulled screen print that I then go back into and add finishing touches with brushes and ink. They are all slightly different, some are very basic and some have more embellishments on top of the original print. First 4 will be $10, second 4 will be $20 third 4 will be $40 and the price will continue to double like that until there are no prints left.

In an effort to not starve to death, I have made a new series of screen prints for a little internet sales experiment. The print, called “Ready or Not, Here I Come”, will be four 8″ hand pulled screen prints on 8.5″x11″ cardstock. I will print a limited edition of 20 sets of 4 prints. To add a little twist to this experiment, the first 4 sets of 4 prints will be $10.00, then the price will double to $20.00 for the second 4 sets of prints, then $40.00 for the third four sets of prints, ect. until all 20 sets of prints are sold. So, it will be cheap for anyone that acts fast but, will get pricier when fewer prints are available.
